| Abstract | In the present study, use of hexagonal urea as a means for the reduction in moisture sensitivity/uptake has been investigated using nicorandil as a model endocytic drug. Urea, a well-known adductor for linear compounds, was successfully employed for adduction of nicorandil—a substituted cyclic organic compound through recently reported technique. Formation of urea inclusion compounds was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction. Modified Zimmerschied calorimetric method was employed for estimation of the minimum amount of rapidly adductible endocyte (RAE) required per unit weight of nicorandil for adduction in urea. Urea–nicorandil–RAE inclusion compounds containing varying proportions of guests were prepared and their thermal behavior studied by DSC. However, coinclusion of nicorandil—a normally non-adductible endocytic compound in urea—naturally resulted in distortion of narrow channels of hexagonal lattice leading to the formation of distorted hexagonal urea. Both the normal and distorted hexagonal urea revealed appreciable reduction in moisture uptake when compared to that of tetragonal urea. The distorted urea framework exhibited increased moisture uptake as compared to the non-distorted one. Study also revealed improved stability of included nicorandil upon exposure to atmosphere at higher humidity levels. The coinclusion compounds of nicorandil were found to exhibit good content uniformity. Urea inclusion compounds of nicorandil in the presence of suitable RAE can be a promising alternative for the development of stable formulations of the drug. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
